Dear Fellow Investor,
With markets still volatile, keep your portfolio protected with dividend stocks.
If you’re looking for safety, with yield to boot, look at the Dividend Aristocrats and the Kings. With the Aristocrats, you’ll find the cream of the crop of stocks, which have raised dividends for more than 25 years. With the Kings, these are the heavyweights, which have been paying dividends for 50, or more years. What makes them even more special is the fact that even in times of economic disarray, inflation, booms, busts, rising interest rates, recessions, and crashes, they’ve still raised their dividends. If a company can survive all of that – and pay dividends – it’s worth a look. There’s just one issue. At the moment, you won’t find a Dividend King ETF. So, your next best bet for exposure is either to buy an individual King, or bet on another ETF, such as... ETF: ProShares S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats ETF (SYM: NOBL)
The ProShares S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats ETF (SYM: NOBL) carries a yield of 2.03% at the moment. With an expense ratio of 0.35%, the ETF focuses on the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats—high-quality companies that have not just paid dividends but grown them for at least 25 consecutive years, with most doing so for 40 years or more. In fact, some of its top holdings include Caterpillar, Pentair, AbbVie, AFLAC, General Dynamics, Clorox Co., Walmart, Hormel Foods, and dozens more. All of which have a strong dividend-paying history. Investors Alley Happy wife, happy life (dividend investing)

It would be a real understatement to say that my wife is now very excited about dividend investing." It's amazing what a steady stream of income can do—and not just for your wallet. I bet it keeps the woman in your life happy, too.
